TANGLED EMBRACE

FEATURING

RICHARD MENSAH

A SOLO EXHIBITION
10 SEPTEMBER - 8 OCTOBER 2022

LOS ANGELES - Band of Vices is honored to present TANGLED EMBRACE, an exhibition of new paintings by London-based artist Richard Mensah. The exhibition will open with a public reception on the 11th of November and will feature 7 intimate works of precision and vulnerability.

This marks Mensah’s solo exhibition debut with the Gallery, on view 11 November - 23 December, 2023.

Originally from Ghana, Mensah weaves together a visual storybook of requited love and those yearning for intimacy. While the threats of the outside world distract these lovers of their full expression, they are threading their own journey to hold on as tightly as they can to one another.

“Richard Mensah’s masterful, technical acuity envelops the viewer, drawing us closer, to explore the various medium used in creating these works. Mixing unconventional materials with traditional ones, Mensah elaborates on his signature style, imposing a three-dimensional component to the works discovered in Tangled Embrace”

- Terrell Tilford, Creative Director
